Do you own a score tool? DO you use it often?


I recently made an accordion card and had to fold a 1 inch piece of paper into 1/4 inch. It was difficult to do this, but I managed. I am wondering if I bought one if I would use it often. Would it be worth it

I have a score board that I use whenever I need to make a fold. It is easy to use and makes a nice straight, crisp fold.

I actually have two. A 12x12 one and a 5x7 one that I take to crops. I do use it more than I used to. I used it in several classes I took and it is a godsend.

Like Tamara, I have both sizes. I'm not a card maker, so I don't use them as often, but when I do, it is totally worth it.

I have several of them. It is nice to have them! However, recently I’ve been using my Stampin Up trimmer for scoring too! I love that both the blade and the scoring tool stay on the sliding arm, you don’t have to take one to use the other! Best think ever!

Phillis, if you have a paper trimmer with a cutting channel, you can use it to score. Use a scoring tool, or an old ballpoint pen that no longer writes. Instead of using the blade on the channel, use your tool! I’m adding a picture,

I use mine ALOT.
